264 cams?? are they to big for stock turbo?

[lazyevo<3]

ok so i have some questions since im new to evos. I am getting a deal on some 264 cams... Are they a good size for stock turbo and engine? Will i have to change my fuel pump n injctors ect..? Any ideas on a good set of cams? Not looking to spend a ton! Thanks for the help!!:confused:

That's a good size for the stock turbo ... 264 or 272 is fine. You will need some more fuel though, especially if it's a VIII.

For the VIII, Revolver, Kelford, GSC are good names. Also, the usual Cosworth and JUN comes up, but they are $$. Absolutely, DO NOT buy Crower cams for the Evo. I haven't seen a single car that did well with them.

hey thanks touring bubble i talked to u on the phone about the tune.. im the one that is friends with joe........ what kinda fuel upgrades do you think i should get to complete this

[TouringBubble]

Oh, okay. Hi. Lol.

Just the Walboro 255 pump should be fine for now.

[lazyevo<3]

ok cool i might pick these up then head down to bama for that tune!!

Since you have a 03 you definitely need to upgrade your fuel pump. They are inexpensive, easy to install, and give you peace of mind. 264's are a good size for a stock turbo. I have 268s (GSC S1s) and they are great for my setup. You won't have to worry about upgrading your valvetrain as well. You shouldn't have to worry about your injectors until you look at upgrading your turbo, but your tuner can give you better insight once he looks at your logs.

Honestly, if you're installing cams go ahead and do springs/retainers at the same time. It's added safety if nothing else.

264's are nice, but why not have the best of both worlds and go with a 272?

[TripperFx3]

Yea bud. Go with either a HKS 272 or a GSC S1, or Kelford. All great cams and will work well with anything from a stock sized turbo up to a 35r.

i cant wait for cams...yum yum.

[jktripp]

love the sound of the 272's

[blkonblk2red]

gsc s1's :) or s2's if you do valve springs and retainers ... its the ones i was looking into before i got revolvers :-D ams did a cam test and i think the s2's,s1's where the nicest :-D my own opinion tho i could be wrong :)

[blkonblk2red]

love the sound of the 272's

when are you going to start working on the motor :-P! the car looks hot... you have any pictures up? off topic i know :(

[jktripp]

s2's ok for the stock turbo? have read different opinions so im comfused about them myself. thats why i started looking at the hks bc everybody says the 272's are ok for stock turbo and then bigger later on..... dif posts about the s1's and s2's confused me a little:confused:

[jktripp]

well, i installed the fuel pump already, i just cant decide what cams....^^ im kinda in between some of them. i have stock turbo now but want to upgrade later, so i dont really want to have to change cams again. or is that just the nature of the beast? (not to steal the thread from OP, but maybe this will help you out some too.) oh, and thank you, but yours is swwwwweeeeeeeetneeeeessssssss. oh, no pics except on my myspace page. not any new ones with the new rims. did i mention i got new rims?

[TripperFx3]

Damn! Just cause I got rims everyone else had to get rimes... :( lol jk.
